Antonio Banderas Sings For Unicef
Filed under: Charity
Antonio Banderas is known for being an actor but as his Broadway career shows, he can sing as well. UNICEF'S Children First album features performances by Banderas, Anne Sofie von Otter, Rebecca Caine, Barbara Hendricks, and the Sylvia Young Theater School Children's Choir. The album is a recording for, about, and in the benefit of children around the world and will be released on January 11, 2011. It sells for $12.99 and $3.00 from the sale of each CD will be donated to support the activities of UNICEF around the world. Children First is an integrated sequence of songs that describes the human life cycle in music and text. It includes an official song of UNICEF sung by Antonio Banderas and Anne Sofie von Otter (listen to it here). That song, "Children First", and other tracks such as "All of These Things You Are to Me" and "Heaven's Lullaby" have lyrics written by American lyricists Amy Powers, Lisa Freeman and Richard Rudolph and music by Danish composer Carsten Mørch. The album is being released through Naxos Music.
